Taxation of Manufacturing Industries.
The universal taxation at present
existing in the United States, was in
augurated as a temporary system,
caused by eireunistances of pressing
necessity, and for the sole object of
raising revenue to meet a great emer
gency. While the war existed, no
complaint arose upon this core; and
the taxes upon individuals, is well as
upon every article of luxury, conven
ience or necessity, were paid willing
ly. When the war reused the nation
rejoiced, and hoped to feel a modifica
tion of the tax business. A commis
sion composed of D. A. Wells, of New
York, Stephen Colweß, of Pennsylva
nia, and Mr. Hayes, of Illinois, was
appointed, and met in the city of New
York "to inquire and report on the
best and most efficient mode of rais
ing revenue by taxation," and under
their report, Congress continued the
report which had arisen during hos
tilities, ami which, with very slight
modifications in stamp duties and in
come tax, remains with us to-day.
it is said that much of the enor
mous revenue raised in this manner
goes to the horde of tax gatherers in
the way of salaries; indeed, some in
sist that the whole tax collected is ab
sorbed by the expense of collecting it.
There is, probably, much truth in
these assertions; and now, as it is eight
years since the commission referred to
met to de"ise the best mode of raising
taxes, we suggest that the President ap
point a second commission to inquire
aud report upon the best and most effi
cient mode of stopping taxation, and
that they report to the incoming Con
gress at an early date. The commis
sion might also be taken into consid
eration and examining the possibilities
of paying the national debt by some
less burdensome method than the
present oppressive system, almost par
alyzing to many a heretofore prosper
ous industry.
In early times, our ancestors sought
to frame such a government as would
be almost exempt from taxation; and
now, with almost a hundred years of
progress in improvement and develop
ment, and with untold additions to the
wealth of the country, with many
millions of increase of population, we
find the pressure of taxation much
worse than at the beginning.
It is noticeable that the h<:avy taxa
tion which is in existence upon manu
factured articles, in many instances
works serious harm to the manufac
turing industries. At Los Angeles
the grape interest is a large one; thous
ands of acres of vines make the val
leys green and purple with grape, fruit
aiid foliage; and yet in very many
vineyards the clustering fruit must
wither and decay upon the vines,
owing to the enormous tax on distilla
tions of grape brandy.
In view of the public linancial crisis
in the Eastern States, and the stagna
tion of various industries by heavy
government taxation, which (when
added to municipal, county and State
taxesj makes t he conduct of almost any
business unprofitable, it might be well
for Congress to 'give the people a rest,'
by suspending this taxation for live or
ten years, and turning the tax-gather
ers over to the tender care of the
grangers of the country. A brief sus
pension of this taxation would permit
the industries of the country to recov
er strength to 'stand the racket' when
the screws are again put on; and as
posterity has a large bill to foot, if they
pay the principal of that which makes
us wince to pay the interest, they will
scarcely complain of this slight relax
ation by us, their honored and glori
ous forefathers.—[Real Estate Circular.
Notable Death.
The San Francisco Bulletin of Oct.
20th, records the death of a noted lady
and pioneer of this State:
Mrs. Rachael Larkin, widow of the
late Thomas 0. Larkin, expired at her
residence on Stockton street, at half
past 5 o'leook this morning. Mrs.
Larkin had been in ill health for many
years, suffering eontinally from neu
ralgia, until her strong constitution
dually succumbed to the disease. She
was a native of Ipswich, Massachu
setts, and at the time of her death was
nearly sixty-six yeaps of age. She
was the first American lady who came
to California, arriving at Monterey in
1532. Her marriage with Thomas O.
Larkin was celebrated on hoard the
United States ship Savannah in that
harbor. Mrs Larkin was widely known
and highly esteemed for her many
virtues, kindness of heart, and noble
character. Early writers upon Cali
fornia, Colton, Dana, and others, pay
high compliments iv their works to
the estimable qualities of the deceased.
She leaves four children of mature
years surviVing-Thomas Oliver, Fran
cis Rogers, and Alfred O. Larkin and
Mrs. Samson Tarns. The estate of the
family is very large. The will of the
deceased appoints (). L. Kennedy,
Charles H. Sawyer and "William Har
ney executors of the estate.
About Charcoal. — Among the
many properties of charcoal, may be
mentioned its power of destroying
smell, taste, and color; and as a proof
of its possesing the first quality, it it be
rubbed over put rid meat, the smell will
be destroyed. If a piece of charcoal
be thrown into putrid water, the
water will be rendered completely
fresh. Bailors are aware of this; for
when water is bad at sea, they are in
the habit of throwing pieces of burnt
biscuit into it to purify it. Color is
materially influenced by charcoal,
and, in a number of instances in a very
irregular way. If take ypu a dirty
black syrup, and filter it through
burnt charcoal, the color will be re
moved. The charcoal of animal mat
ter appears to be the best for this pur
pose. You may learn the influence of
charcoal In destroying colors by fil
tering a bottle of port wine through
it; in the filtration it will lose a great
portion of its coloring, and become
tawny; repeat the process two or
three times, and you have destroyed
its color altogether.

THE LOS ANGELES HERALD.
The first of October, Tin; Los Anoki.ks Heu
ai.i>, a dally and weekly newspaper, will
make Its appearance. The Dally will be a
neat and tastily printed seven-column news
paper, newsy rather than literary In charac
ter. The Weekly will be a six-column, eight
page paner,,and will Contain the most Impor
tnnt matter that, has previously appeared in
Tuk Daily Hekai.d.
It Is proposed that the IIEHAr.n shall be an
unbought udvoeute of every interest pertain
ing to Southern California and Arizona, and
a zealous worker in all things that shall tend
to lieneflt the State. In a word it will be in
close communion with the People. In Its col
umns, from time to time will be found mat
ters of Interest to the California Fanner, Me
chanic, Merchant, Laborer, ami ail classes of
Producers; and it will also contain reading
matter suited to the Home Circle.
The Hkk w.ii will be an Independent Demo
cratic Journal nnd Its efforts directed to sweep
ing from power nnd place those now misman
aging the affairs of the Nation. For the accom
plishment ofthisend, it will hall with satisfac
tion the co-operation of the memhersof all Par
ties, believing that the prosperity, perhaps
safety, of the Nation depends upon Ihe success
of a movement of this character. It Is " reform
now or revolution hereatter."
The Hkkai.l) will uuvocate State Rights and
oppose Centralization; it will encourage White
and oppose Coolie lnimtgruticn. It will favor
Free Trade, and oppose Protective Tariff; it
will advocate a Greenback Currency for Call
torn la, and oppose Ihe present dwarfing and
deadening policy which upholds the present
ruinous rates of interest nnd shuts out Eastern
capital. It will advocate the People nnd op
pose Monopolies, no matter what guise they
may assume.
While the Hkkamj will treat Slavery as a
dead issue, It wil earnestly advocate the
right of every Stun , lie it Northern or South
ern—Massachusetts or South Curotlan—to gov
ern Itself in accordance with the wishes of its
people, and the dictates of the Federal Con
stitution, without national Interference.
The Hkkai.u will opppse thieving and pecu
lation. No man rightly owns a dollar until
he earns it. Every dollar which is taken
from the public treasury or private purse
without a Just return is robbery, and he who
takes this money Is a thief. Believing this,
the II Kit M.ii will oppose salary' steal* custom
stents, land steals, railroad steals, and every
kind of steals.
Eaeli day, the fullest Foreign and Domestic
Telegrams will be published. The aim will
be to supply, In this part of the State, the de
mand heretofore tilled by the Sun Francisco
dallies. No trouble or expense will be spared
to make the Hkiiai.ii, In this respect, equal to
any newspap»r on the Coast. It will nlso con
taln a full lie view of the UDOM and Foreign
Markets, And the Trades generally, honestly
and carefully compiled.
